Hi,

I have a reoccuring problem and maybe I've looked at it too long, but I
just can't find any possible cause. Regularly (sometimes every 3 hours,
sometimes once a day) the check latencies in Icinga increase significantly.
My usual average is about ~1 second or less and the increased goes up to
300 seconds. Host Check latencies seem to increase faster and higher, so if
host check latency is as 300, service check will be at around 100.

Setup:
RHEL 6.1
Icinga 1.9.0 with idoutils compiled from source
 mySQL is running on the same machine
 pnp4nagios is also running on the same maschine
 nothing else running
48 GB Ram
2.8 Ghz Intel Xeon E5440
146 GB Raid 1 with 2,5" HP 10k sas drives

~1000 Hosts - checked every 5 Minutes
~10000 Checks - around 6000 checked every 5 minutes, the rest spread over
the day (some only once a day)


I've seen this happen 3 times today, each time it slowly increased over
about 10 minutes till. Sometimes it decreases without user interaction as
well.

I monitored the last increase and looked at
CPU Load => always around 2-4
cpu wait => around 5%
Memory: 6 GB really used, 40 GB cached
no swap used
disks usage - all nowhere close to full, both block and inode
open files: around 7k for the whole system, 475 for icinga


 ulimits:
core file size          (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority             (-e) 0

virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks                      (-x) unlimited


everything under /usr/local/icinga/var/spool/ is on ramdisks
(checkresults,temp_path,debug_file)

icinga.cfg is attached.

Any suggestions on what could be causing this or what else I could monitor
to troubleshoot this are greatly appreciated.
